This course explores and compares the diverse cultural categories of gender and sex including their grounding in biological functions, belief systems, kinship, and popular representation across the globe. It explores sexuality as more than a biological process, viewing sexuality as a human cultural expression. This course contextualizes gender, sex, and sexuality within broader cultural systems as well as global interactions to understand how these categories are shaped and, in turn, shape our lives.
